I bought my large Selma DD at an excellent price, used it twice and it's been chilling in the closet waiting patiently for Fall. Fast forward approx two months and Cinder is released. I actually haven't seen Cinder IRL, but the pics are GORGEOUS & it has SHW. I thought DD was the perfect color until now. Sometimes it just pays to hold off and buy when the season actually hits, in order to see the new colors first. IMO, Cinder & DD would be too close to justify having both. Maybe I could get a different style bag in Cinder :thinking:


What colour would you describe your DD Selma closer to, grey or brown? Mine looks like a light grey but online it has a more brown undertone.
 
Okay, this is out of the box thinking, but have you considered a purple e/w or n/s Hamilton? I saw a picture of a dark purple n/s Hamilton tote with silver hardware on Pinterest and fell in love! I don't know what the color name was, but it was beautiful. It was such a great combination for a fall/winter bag. If I didn't already have my malachite Selma for the fall, I'd be looking for an iris or wisteria n/s Hamilton tote with silver hardware right now! :graucho:


You know it's funny you say that because I saw a dark dune EW Hamilton the other day and thought it was cute! The NS is way too big for me and I don't like the chain in the EW. If the chain strap was removable I might like it more. I have seen it in purple online too and I agree it's a gorgeous bag!! I've got to get out of my sutton/Selma rut! I just can't seem to find anything I love as much as those two (looks wise at least). I love my jet set top zip too!

I'm kinda feeling like this too. I haven't seen cinder irl yet but I'm loving the color. I purchased my dd Selma a couple months ago. I love it and dd has always been my favorite MK color. However, cinder can change all that. I'm also thinking if I get a soft leather bag that I could justify having both....[emoji3]

I agree [emoji2]! A soft leather bag will make all the difference in being able to justify having both colors. But I think I'd prefer Cinder in Selma and soft leather in DD. Oh well, DD Selma is still gorgeous.

No worries. Your Sutton, Selmas and Jet Set Tote are fab, especially the colors you chose. :smile1:

My thoughts exactly! Except I still prefer browns over greys...more browns in my wardrobe.

Grey is a color that looks good with texture...for example, I think grey looks better on suede boots than leather ones. I think I'd go with cinder in soft leather and dark dune in saffiano leather. Also, I just love dark dune in saffiano leather. It tends to take on a different, lighter shade in soft leather, and I prefer the darker shade. :smile1:
 
I may need to exchange mine, it looks light grey but maybe its the lighting in my room. In all honesty, I just wanted something in DD as I gave away my Hamilton in that colour to my bff! The Hamilton looked a lot darker than the Selma though.
When I put my dark dune Hamilton next to brown clothing, it definitely looks more brown/taupe. When I put it next to grey clothing, it doesn't look grey at all. It seems like dark dune looks darker or lighter depending on the bag. I love it on my n/s Hamilton tote, but that's my only dark dune bag so I don't have anything else to compare it to.
 
One more question ubo22. I posted under shoes but no reply. Can I wear the hamilton loafer one with the lock on shoes, with a dress or skirt? The Fulton flats give less support and I run around all day at work. Is it tacky if I do??
